means
different
things
to
different
people,
varies
from
city
to
city
and
country
to
country,
depending
on
the
level
of
development,
willingness
to
change
and
reform,
resources
and
aspirations
of
the
city
residents.

URBAN MOBILITY
smart parking
Definition:
A
vehicle
parking
system
that
helps
drivers
find
a
vacant
spot.
Using
sensors
in
each
parking
space
that
detect
the
presence
or
absence
of
a
vehicle,
signs
direct
incoming
drivers
to
available
locations.
Benefits

traffic
flow
/
reduced
congestion
• Statistical
and
real-‐‑time
information
on
parking
vacancies
• Intelligent
usage

This
results
in
an
intelligent
comparison
of
travel
modes,
encouraging
use
of
public
transport
as
needed
and
can
helps
to
minimize
the

Smart Parking
case study :Town of Cottesloe, Perth – Australia
SmartPark
transformed
on-‐‑street
city
parking
by
combining
three
Smart
Parking
technologies
to
identify
all
overstays
and
enforce
infringement
notices,
while
helping
drivers
park
quickly
and
easily.
The
challenge
o The
Town
of
Cottesloe
in
Perth,
Australia
is
a
popular
tourist
destination.
o
A
fair,
efficient
parking
management
system
is
an
essential
component
of
making
a
visit
to
the
Town
of
Cottesloe
enjoyable
for
visitors,
fair
to
residents
and
profitable
to
local
businesses.
o Cottesloe
had
been
managing
parking
through
traditional
methods:
officers
would
patrol
time-‐‑restricted
areas,
identifying
overstays
and
issuing
infringement
notices.
o This
had
proved
inefficient
as
not
all
infringing
vehicles
could
be
identified.
It
was
also
a
tedious,
time
consuming
and
mundane
task
for
parking
enforcement
officers.

the
practice
has
been
spreading
in
Western
countries
since
the
beginning
of
this
century.
As
of
now,
more
than
600
cities
worldwide
had
a
bike-‐‑sharing
program.
Netherlands
o The
Netherlands
has
a
single
nationwide
bike
sharing
program.
It's
called
"OV-‐‑
fiets",
which
means
'public
transport
bike'.
6000
bikes
in
252
locations,
mainly
train
stations,
all
over
the
country.
o Membership
is
required
(annual
fee
€10,
€3.15
per
rental
day)
and
can
be
combined
with
public
transport
card.
The
program,
which
started
on
a
small
scale
in
2003,
has
enjoyed
a
steadily
increasing
popularity
with
over
1.53
million
rides
registered
in
2014.
o The
nature
of
the
Dutch
bike
sharing
program
differs
from
that
of
programs
in
other
countries
partly
because
the
already
high
bike
ownership
of
the
population.
Its
interconnection
with
the
public
transport
network
allows
it
to
fill
the
need
of
people
who
also
want
to
continue
traveling
by
bike
from
the
station
of
their
destination.

SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT
pneumatic refuse collection, or automated vacuum collection
An
automated
vacuum
waste
collection
system,
also
known
as
pneumatic
refuse
collection,
or
automated
vacuum
collection
(AVAC),
transports
waste
at
high
speed
through
underground
pneumatic
tubes
to
a
collection
station
where
it
is
compacted
and
sealed
in
containers.
When
the
container
is
full,
it
is
transported
away
and
emptied.
The
system
helps
facilitate
separation
and
recycling
of
waste

System
Outline
There
are
many
problems
in
collection
of
municipal
solid
waste
by
conventional
vehicles
transportation
system
such
as
noise
from
collecting
vehicles,
bad
odor
and
scattered
residue.
Kobe
Steel's
waste
pneumatic
transportation
system
can
eliminate
these
problems
by
collecting
waste
by
means
of
air
flow
through
underground
pipe
line,
like
vacuum
cleaner.
System construction
Kobe
Steel's
waste
pneumatic
transportation
system
is
consisted
of
waste
disposal
posts,
storages,
pipe
lines,
separators
with
dust
collectors,
blowers,
de-‐‑odorizers
and
control
system.
There
are
two
types
of
disposal
posts,
one
is
for
dust
suit
type
installed
in
tall
buildings
and
the
other
is
for
floor
type
installed
at
parks
or
lower
buildings.
In
order
to
reject
unsuited
waste
for
this
transportation
system,
a
device
to
restrict
of
waste
volume
is
installed
in
the
waste
disposal

WASTE TO ENERGY & FUEL
• Incineration
is
a
waste
treatment
process
that
involves
the
combustion
of
organic
substances
contained
in
waste
materials.
• Incineration
of
waste
materials
converts
the
waste
into
ash,
flue
gas,
and
heat.
• The
heat
generated
by
incineration
can
be
used
to
generate
electric
power
OR
• produce
a
combustible
fuel
commodity,
such
as
methane,
methanol,
ethanol
or
synthetic
fuels.
WASTE TO COMPOST
Composting
• Organic
matter
constitutes
35%–40%
of
the
municipal
solid
waste
generated
in
India.
• This
waste
can
be
recycled
by
the
method
of
composting,
one
of
the
oldest
forms
of
disposal.
• It
is
the
natural
process
of
decomposition
of
organic
waste
that
yields
manure
or
compost,
which
is
very
rich
in
nutrients.
• Burning
organic
matter
generates
bio
mass.

Smart Metering Definition
o Smart
meters
are
Interval
meters
on
customer
premises
that
measure
consumption
during
specific
time
periods
and
communicate
it
to
the
utility,
often
on
a
daily
basis.
o While
in
the
electric
industry,
measurement
intervals
can
be
as
short
as
every
10
or
15
minutes,
o Water
intervals
of
30
to
60
minutes
or
longer
generally
provide
adequate
information.
Why Use Smart Metering?
• Information
to
the
Customer
• Information
to
the
Utility
• Better
Services
Without
Incremental
Costs
• Metering
and
measuring
facility
water
use
help
to
analyze
saving
opportunities.
• This
also
assures
the
equipment
is
run
correctly
and
maintained
properly
to
help
prevent
water
waste
from

sharpen
the
focus
on

are
increasingly
looking

• Under
pin
new

and
regulatory
programs
that
respond
flexibly
to
community
water
needs.
• Smart
metering
may
also
include:
At
the
customer
site:
An
easy
to
read
display.
It
helps
customers
check
for
leaks,
reduce
consumption,
and
monitor
compliance
with
local
restrictions.
At
the
utility:
Additional
data

the
value
of:
o Ensuring
that
all

o Remote
programming
that
enables
customers
to

and
environmental.
o Fewer
meter
readers
,which
means
lower

o Lower
risk
to
public
safety
from

WATER LEAKAGES
Smart Water: pipe control to reduce water leakages in Smart Cities
Water
is
becoming
a
scarcer
resource
due
to
many
reasons:
• Increased
city
populations
mean
increased
demand
for
water
• Climactic
changes
have
reduced
rainfall
forecasts
• Traditional
water
extraction
methods
have
depleted
available
water
from
some
local
sources.
Smart
cities
must
monitor
water
supply
and
distribution
to
ensure
that
there
is
sufficient
access
for
citizen
and
industry
use
and
also
to
save
money.
For
example
the
amount
of
a
city’s
water
supply
that
is
lost
to
water
leakage
is
as
high
as:
• Up
to
20%
in
Canadian
municipalities
• 20
%
in
United
Kingdom,
Spain,
Malta,
and
the
Czech
Republic
• 25%
in
Rome.

from
their
investment.
Tokyo,
for
example,
has
calculated
they
save
$USD170
million
each
year
by
detecting
water
leakage
problems
early.
Libelium’s
Smart

Board
includes
a
water
flow
sensor
that
can
detect
pipe
flow
rates
ranging
from
0.15
to
60

The
system
can
report
pipe
flow
measurement
data
regularly,
as
well
as
send
automatic
alerts
if
water
use
is
outside
of
an
expected
normal
range.
This
allows
a
smart
city
to
identify
the
location
of
leaking

and
prioritize
repairs
based
on
the
amount
of

Looping water reuse
ONCE THROUGH SYSTEM
In
a
traditional
urban
water
system,
after
water
use,
wastewater
is
treated
to
certain
legalized
quality
levels
when
discharged
into
receiving
water
bodies.
Such
a
water
use
system
is
generally
regarded
as
a
once-‐‑through
system
(Indigo,
2003).
In
such
system
water
is
only
used
once,
so
the
efficiency
of
water
use
is
low.
LOOPED SYSTEM
looped
system
created
when
treated
wastewater
is
reused
for
some
applications
which
do
not
require
high-‐‑quality
drinking
water,
such
as
irrigation
and
sanitation.
Wastewater
reuse
practices
will
help
in
satisfying
more
water
demands
while
effluent
discharge
can
be
reduced.
Although
a

JAPAN as a good model for other developing and developed countries in
WATER LOOPING SYSTEM
o Japan
stands
out
as
a
nation
that
adopted
a
mix
of
water
reuse
strategies
that
included
closed
loop
type
systems
at
a
very
early
stage
and
in
a
more
significant
manner.
o Japan
also
utilized
a
blend
of
reclaimed
water
sources:
municipal
wastewater,
grey
water
and
rainwater.
o As
a
result
of
concentrated
high
density
growth
in
post
World
War
II
Japan,
urban
areas
that
lacked
adequate
water
resource
systems
were
forced
to
find
alternative
solutions.
o As
a
result,
Japan
became
the
leader
in
urban
water
reuse,
with
8%
of
the
total
reclaimed
water
being
used
for
urban
purposes
through
a
number
of
mechanisms
which
includes
decentralized
closed
loop
and
open
loop
systems.
o Because
of
Japan’s
focus
on
urban
water
reuse,
it
stands
as
a
good
model
for
other
developing
and
developed
countries
that
seek
to
establish
water
reuse
systems
as
part
of
urban
development
and
redevelopment.
o The
first
indoor
closed
loop
water
reuse
projects
beginning
in
1984,
in
the
shinjuku
district
of
tokyo.
o Wastewater,
greywater
and
rainwater
being
captured
in
the
building
or
from
neighboring
buildings.
Some
systems
are
therefore
very
small
but
taken
together
37.
37
this
entire
network
of
large
area
systems
combined
within
building
systems
results
in
61%
of
all
non
potable
water
demand
being
met
with
reuse
water
in
tokyo.
o It
was
reported
in
1996
that
there
were
a
total
of
2,100
buildings
using
some
form
of
water
reuse
and
that
130
new
water
reuse
systems
were
being
installed
each
year.
(Yamagata)
o In
addition,
of
the
1,718
wastewater
treatment
plants
that
exist
in
japan,
240
plants
distribute
water
for
reuse
in
various
forms.
o Currently
it
is
reported
that
4.2
million
gallons
per
day
of
reuse
water
for
toilet
flushing
is
distributed
from
the
larger
plants
and
46
smaller
plants
provide
14.2
million
gallons
per
day
of
reuse
for
various
in-‐‑building
uses,
including
toilet
flushing,
cooling
and
plant
watering.
o In
tokyo
the
requirement
for
water
reuse
is
for
all
buildings
over
10,000
square
meters
and
in
osaka
and
fukuoma
the
requirement
for
water
reuse
is
for
all
buildings
over
5,000

What Is ENEFARM?
ENEFARM
is
a
residential
hot
water
supply
and
hot
water
space
heating
system
that
can
also
generate
electricity.
It
produces
electricity
by
extracting
hydrogen
from
LP
gas
or
city
gas
for
use
in
a
chemical
reaction
with
oxygen
in
the
air
and
utilizes
heat
produced
during
power
generation
for
hot
water
supply
or
space
heating.
Since
ENEFARM
can
produce
energy
at
home
or
wherever
it
is
needed,
it
is
an
environment-‐‑friendly
system
that
makes
possible
waste-‐‑free,
efficient
energy
use.
59.
59
The Power Generation Principle of ENEFARM
The
power
generation
mechanism
utilizes
the
reverse
principle
of
electrolysis
of
water,
in
which
an
electric
current
is
passed
through
water
to
break
it
down
into
hydrogen
and
oxygen.
First,
hydrogen
is
extracted
from
LP
gas
or
city
gas.
Electricity
is
then
generated
through
a
chemical
reaction
between
the
hydrogen
and
oxygen
in
the
air.
Since
both
electricity
and
heat
are
simultaneously
generated
at
the
time
of
the
chemical
reaction,
the
heat
is
used
to
produce
hot
water
for
the
home.
ENEFARM System Configuration
ENEFARM
consists
of
a
fuel
cell
unit
and
a
hot
water
storage
unit.
At
the
fuel
cell
unit,
electricity
is
generated
through
a
chemical
reaction
between
hydrogen
extracted
from
gas
and
oxygen
in
the
air.
The
heat
generated
is
used
to
heat
water,
which
is
stored
in
the
hot
water
storage
unit.

Smart grid system with distributed power sources
Advanced
sensing,
communication
and
control
technologies
are
used
in
these
smart
grids
not
only
for
generation
and
transmission
of
power,
but
also
distribution
and
utilization
of
electricity
in
an
intelligent
and
effective
manner.
A
Smart
Mini-‐‑Grid
(SMG)
is
an
intelligent
electricity
distribution
network,
operating
at
or
below
11
KV,
where
the
energy
demand
is
effectively
and
intelligently
managed
by
diverse
range
of
Distributed
Energy
Resources
such
as
solar
PV,
micro-‐‑hydro
power
plants,
wind
turbines,
biomass,
small
conventional
generators
such
as
diesel
gensets
etc.
in
combination
with
each
other
through
smart
control
techniques.
This
integrated
energy
system
comprises:
´ Variable
loads
which
are
connected
to
the
distribution
grid;
´ Diverse
range
of
small,
local
generators
based
on
distributed
energy
resources,
for
example,
solar,
wind
energy,
storage
system;
and
´ Control
and
power
conditioning
systems.

• A
Smart
Mini-‐‑Grid
system
is
an
application
of
digital
technology
which
optimizes
electrical
power
generation
and
delivery
• The
system
is
based
on
the
integration
of
multiple
distributed
energy
resources
(DERs)
into
the
same
grid.
• This
system
is
also
based
on
intelligent
load
and
energy
resource
management.
• It
is
designed
with
local
controllers
for
each
of
the
distributed
generation
technologies
as
well
as
a
central
controller
called
intelligent
dispatch
controller
(IDC)
which
communicates
with
the
each
local
controller.
Whereas
the
local
controllers
ensure
maximum
utilization
of
energy
resources
with
permissible
output
power,
the
IDC
performs
complex
system
control
functions
and
takes
critical
decisions
such
as
automating
the
demand
response,
dynamically
adding
or
removing
DERs
in
a
seamless
manner
(based
on
the
existing
demand)
without
affecting
the
grid
stability.

HYDROGEN REUSE SYSTEM
´ Hydrogen
is
used
as
a
process
atmosphere
in
many
industries,
most
notably
metal
treating,
powder
metallurgy,
glassmaking,
and
semiconductor
manufacturing.
´ It
is
typically
vented
during
these
processes
in
the
same
stream
as
other
waste
gas
components.
To
date,
the
waste
hydrogen
gas
has
typically
not
been
recovered
for
reuse.
This
is
especially
true
in
smaller
scale
applications,
because
there
was
no
economical
means
by
which
to
scrub
the
gas
stream
of
accumulated
impurities,
or
to
compress
it
in
a
way
that
it
could
be
efficiently
stored
for
later
use.
Hydrogen
consumers
have
traditionally
had
two
solutions
to
the
problem
of
waste
hydrogen:
´ purchase
more
hydrogen
from
industrial
gas
suppliers
´ generate
hydrogen
on-‐‑site
using
an
electrolyzer
or
a
reformer.

Sustainable
Innovation’s
solution
to
hydrogen
supply
lies
within
its
revolutionary
H2RENEW™
technology;
capable
of
recycling
and
generating
high
purity
(99.999+%),
high
pressure
hydrogen
using
a
solid
state
process.
Hydrogen
normally
exhausted
and/or
flared
from
an
industrial
process
is
captured,
purified,
compressed,
and
stored
for
later
use.
As
a
result,
up
to
98%
of
process
hydrogen
can
be
recycled,
greatly
reducing
the
amount
of
purchased
hydrogen
and
handling
costs
and
risks.
Since
process
hydrogen
is
recycled,
there
is
no
need
for
a
large
volume
of
stored
hydrogen
on-‐‑site,
nor
the
need
to
generate
large
quantities
of
gas.
NASA
Recycles
Hydrogen
to
Beat
Bottled
Water
Blues
´ If
you
think
high-‐‑end
bottled
water
is
expensive
at
the
grocery
store,
you
should
try
pricing
it
in
space.
In
looking
to
possible
future
manned
missions
to
the
Moon
and
Mars,
NASA
today
sets
a
premium
on
recycling
the
water
(especially
the
hydrogen)
already
onboard
its
spacecraft.
And
with
water
shipping
cost
estimates
a
million
dollars
per
pound
or
more.
´ So
recently,
NASA
granted
Sustainable
Innovations
a
Phase
I
Small
Business
Innovation
Research
(SBIR)
Award
for
its
H2RENEW™
hydrogen
(and
therefore
water)
recycling
technology.
´ The
first
challenge
in
designing
an
onboard
spacecraft
gas
recycling
system
is
that
molecular
hydrogen
is
so
small
and
lightweight,
it’s
hard
to
corral
into
even
an
impure
stream.
But
then
refining
the
gas
stream
so
that
it
approaches
100%
hydrogen
with
no
impurities
–
and
doing
so
using
only
a
portable,
lightweight
and
low-‐‑maintenance
system
–
is
especially
difficult.
